Which taxes will be repealed under the proposed American Health Care Act (AHCA)…and when? The proposed bill, introduced by congressional Republicans to replace the Affordable Care Act, repeals several taxes, including individual and employer mandates (retroactive to 2016); the 3.8% net investment income tax (beginning in 2018); the 0.9% additional Medicare tax (2018); and the medical device excisetax (2018).
